Add Data

To add data, click the button in the top right.

You can select data from an ICA project, upload metadata, or upload local files. Selecting data from an ICA project will open a new screen where you can select your data. At the top of the screen, you'll see the name of your study. Here you can select the data type to import.

For each data type, you will only be able to choose data formats from Illumina or supported third-party formats. Refer to the Supported Data Types to see which file extensions are accepted for each data format. TSV metadata files can always be selected. For example, if you choose Bulk > Proteomics as the data type, you will only see ADAT files and TSV files as options for upload.

Each column has a filter icon to filter data and three dots which you can click on to find more options. Select an entire folder or click into the folder to select files individually. Demo data that is used to generate the Tutorial Study is available to you to add to your Study by clicking .

Once you've selected your data, click to add the data to your study. Upon submitting, you'll be redirected to the Samples tab, and a message will indicate your data ingestion was successful. Here you can upload metadata from local storage, add additional data from an ICA project, create sample groups, or create new analysis.

Now, if you click back to the Overview tab, you'll see that the Date Modified was updated and the Data Metrics reflect the newly added files and samples.

Repeat the process to add data for additional data types.
